    when was the last time you saw a rookie pitcher make his debut as a -235 favorite?

    I'm not playing the game, but I can't recall the last time a rookie debut with so much chalk.
    Yanks (Kennedy) -235

    I asked myself the same question. Jackson has been pitching vey well for Tampa......which in my opinion makes this line even more outlandish.

    I'm not playing this game today......but if I was it wouldn't be with the Yanks.

    The only thing I can think of......is the fact that young pitchers sometimes come out and throw a gem. It's the Yanks at home and there is a chance they win this game.

    Thing that puzzles me though, P.Hughes, Yanks top prospect, never had that much chalk his first few starts.

    There must be a lot of money on the Yankees...plus no respect for last nites D Ray starter or Jackson today. I ended up just doing a small parlay with D Rays/Angels/Brewers.
